Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices.</p> <p>CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.</p> <p>CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.</p> <p>CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets.</p> <p>Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.</p> <p>Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.</p> <p>No known public exploitation specifically targeting these vulnerabilities has been reported to CISA at this time.</p> <hr /> <h2>Revision History</h2> <ul> <li><strong>Initial Release Date: </strong>2026-07-02</li> </ul> <table class="tablesaw tablesaw-stack"> <thead> <tr> <th>Date</th> <th>Revision</th> <th>Summary</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>2026-07-02</td> <td>1</td> <td>Initial Publication</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <hr /> <h2>Legal Notice and Terms of Use</h2>
